That interaction looks really interesting. We could finally have medusas that actually work.

I don't think creating a column of obsidian is very medusa-like , but okay.

I installed this mod some time ago. After looking through legends mode I noticed that there are Forgotten Beasts still being spawned (Toad caravans (and other races) also refer to capital as a Mountainhome). Is this intended or did I install the mod incorrectly?

[Deon]

Did you use a custom world gen? Because I did not look into it, but if the mod is intended to REPLACE forgotten beasts, then it does it via a custom world gen, so you cannot have it in a standard worldgen parameter.

since it's MAR10... i've decided to upload my Super Mario World world gen I made a couple years ago... and thought it might be of some interest to y'all: http://dffd.bay12games.com/file.php?id=14921

So for those wondering what's going on with this mod...

I've been experimenting with the new potential opened up by experiments and spawning reactions (Lakitu's Cloud gonna become a much more fun mount, heh heh) but one major thing that I think needs to be overhauled are the entities.  There are way too many of them, and one issue that I didn't realize was that in default worlds with no advanced parameters, sometimes civs just won't spawn, which can include the playable civs.

One way I'm trying to correct this is to make several of the civs into "archetypes" instead, with many of these archetypes having variable values (similar to vanilla humans) and make the race for each civ randomly selected from a list.  The more iconic civs, or those particularly important for gameplay, will remain as constants, but the one-off races like Doogans, Mole Folk, etc. will not appear in every world, and when they do appear they will have a more flexible set of potential values and roles.  It's also possible that some races might be consolidated, for instance Bonneters might be "dapper" Boos.  Also it occurred to me that Volbonans (literally just living forks) fit in well with the Machine Made archetype of "living weapons"...could they be peaceful Machine Mades?

Looks neat, how do you make those?

i made a basic Super Mario World height elevation height map in photoshop, converted it to a DF world gen height map with: https://angrylawyer.github.io/DwarfHeightmap-coffeescript/ (but probably could have used a Perfect World or something), exported the other maps from legends mode, and tweaked them in photoshop to make them generate biomes closer to the SMW map and converted them to the DF world gen format again. for rendering it, i used http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=73095.0

side-by-side comparison:

Can't wait to see how the mounts in this mod will work. I can have an entire army of shyguys ride clouds to avoid melee combat and pelt their enemies with range attacks to block out the sun

hoping to see an update to my #1 favorite mod soon  i like the idea of making the odyssey races more consolidated with existing Mario races, because personally they feel like giant outliers as it is, and i removed them in my playthrough of the most recent ROTMK, no offense haha

Just a question, how compatible is this mod with graphics packs found in LNP? If not, what do you do to override the graphics pack?

[GeorgeGrenville]

I can't remove the original raws without the game crashing at world creation, what should I do?

[Hexatona]

This is one of my fav mods.  I really like total theme conversion mods for DF.

Makes me really surprised that very similar games like Cataclysm DDA have very few mods like that.  And none that I know of for a particular franchise.  I wonder why that is?  Different modder desires?  Modding things that way kinda difficult?

It's funny, DF was a Settlement Building game that changed into a roguelike, and CDDA is a roguelike that slowly moved towards a settlement building game.

One small suggestion: A workshop with reactions that consume certain power-up foods and apply their effects to the worker, so we can order certain toads/koopas/shy guys to eat something helpful when it's helpful instead of deciding the one Mega Mushroom in the entire fort would be a good midnight snack and not something to save in case of a megabeast.

Unfortunately, this isn't possible without DFHack.  You can forbid the foods you want to save for later but there's no straightforward way to control this.
